The Dalles City Council discussed what to do with $1.6 million in American Rescue Plan funds. It’s the first of two installments that will be coming from the federal government over the next two years. Mayor Rich Mays says the Council is discussing using $400,000 to provide to the Northern Wasco Parks and Recreation District to help restore Sorosis Park. The district plans to make a similar request of Wasco County. The Council will consider the use of the funds again at a meeting in late July.
